    There was no war in the Persian Gulf until that Israel bootlicker started one.

    And a 42 percent plurality of Trump voters said the U.S. should continue the conflict even if it pushes prices higher

    Victims of scams frequently double down on the scam to save face and avoid having to face the reality that they were scammed. There is also the sunk cost fallacy.

      Yeah, a good chunk of Trump voters made Trump voter their whole damned identity.

      It’s really tough to walk away from something you made your identity. The threat of ‘I told you so’ is just unbearable for some folks.
